Hotkey suggestion for infrastructure

Post by mike1962 »

There are hotkeys that darken areas with military units in them until the Space Bar is pressed. I would like to see hotkeys that darken areas with resource, factory, rail units, etc...I play with "Show no Infrastructure or Supplies" selected under Map Prefs to keep the map uncluttered. Mike

There already is a hotkey (i) which will put up a small rectangular graphic display in the middle of each region showing the amount of factories, rail, resource and population centers in each. It doesn't show infrastructure damage or the amount of black population, but it covers everything else.

Yes, I am aware of that one, that box is sure hard on the eyes though, the darkened areas jump right out at you. Thanks for the reply there General Rearguard[:)]

I dunno...I kinda like the box. It's got a little color in it anyway. However, I think New York needs a '2' rail after they get the subway in. [:D]
